Chapter 40: Empress Dowager Gu
"County Lord, don't you know, since the county lord came back yesterday, the streets and alleys of the capital are full of rumors about the county lord and King Su."
Chu Yunsheng asked, "It's all over the street?" ”
The last time Qin Qi broke into her boudoir to track down the assassin, rumors of her and Qin Qi had spread since then. She has no concept of the rumors about her and Qin Qi all over the street.
Cardamom nodded, "Yes, this rumor is very popular, and in just half a day, it has been spread to all the women and children in the capital." ”
Chu Yunsheng was stunned, "Women and children all know? ”
Qin Qi is not close to women, since the last night when she broke into the boudoir, the gossip between her and Qin Qi has been circulating in the streets, but she only occasionally mentions a few words after dinner. With the passage of time, there should be fewer and fewer rumors, how can women and children know about it!
"This rumor is also strange to say, and after half a day's effort, it spread all over the capital." Thinking of the county lord Jinyu he met just now, Cardamom said again, "The county lord Jinyu looked like just now, this rumor probably also spread to the palace." ”
and Qin Qi spread rumors, and everyone knows the rumors......
Chu Yunsheng felt very messy, but one thing was certain, the Queen Mother summoned her definitely because of rumors.
I remember that when I left the Imperial Garden, Jin Yu said that in addition to calling her to go, the Queen Mother also called Qin Qi.
I don't know the queen mother's plans, but she has a bad premonition in her heart.
"The county king came to the county lord many times yesterday, presumably to talk about this matter, but unfortunately the county lord ignored it." After saying that, Cardamom sighed. Every time the county lord encounters something, it is the county king who is next to him, and he solves it, and the county lord is looking for the county lord last night, probably to give the county lord a move, but it's a pity......
Chu Yunsheng's face froze, "Yes...... Have it? ”
She thought about it, well... Like, this is really there!
At that time, she was a little sleepy, and her brother sent people to call her many times, she thought that her brother was going to discipline her, and then the quilt was torn and she had a beautiful dream......
The price of a dream is that no one has given her advice on today's matter, and she has to solve it herself.
Chu Yunsheng was in a depressed mood, and arrived at Changle Palace after a while.
got off the sedan chair at the gate of Changle Palace, looked at the solemn Changle Palace, and saw the stereotypical expression on the face of the palace maid of the inner prison, and she beat a retreat in her heart.
She stood in front of the palace gate of Changle Palace, paused for a moment, and soon someone from the palace reminded, "Pingyang County Lord, please, the Queen Mother has been looking forward to the county lord for a long time!" ”
Chu Yunsheng raised her head and looked at the "Changle Palace" plaque with red edge and blue background, she took a deep breath and walked inside.
Changle Palace is placed with a lot of flowers, and the imperial garden has a fight, the exhibition can see, everywhere you can see the carved beams and paintings, the golden splendor is magnificent.
Beauty is beautiful, at this moment, where is she in the mood to appreciate these.
Seeing her voice and shadow, Aunt Yulan beside the Queen Mother hurriedly came over to answer, "The slaves and maids have changed three teas for the Queen Mother, and they can be regarded as looking forward to the county lord." ”
This Aunt Yulan is the queen mother's confidant and takes good care of herself.
Chu Yunsheng had an embarrassed smile on his face, "I encountered something halfway and delayed." ”
When he was in the Imperial Garden, he temporarily suppressed Jinyu with the Queen Mother. After seeing the Queen Mother, she still couldn't escape Jinyu's interrogation, if she hid and disappeared, it was estimated that Jinyu would go to Yongning Mansion to find her.
Accidentally provoked such a difficult character, Chu Yunsheng was physically and mentally exhausted.
Aunt Yulan asked, "When the county lord entered the palace, didn't he meet the county lord Jinyu?" ”
Chu Yunsheng nodded, in the current situation, most people talk about her in private, and at this time, it is difficult for her, except for the county lord Jinyu, who has loved Qin Qi for many years, who else can it be.
Aunt Yulan said with a smile, "The county lord of Jinyu is infatuated with King Su, when King Su asked to marry Miss Gu of the Marquis of Wulie's mansion, His Majesty intended to give the county lord of Jinyu to King Su as well, but then it was over. Now seeing the county lord inserted into it, the county lord Jinyu is afraid that he is crazy. ”
Thinking back to Jinyu's appearance, Chu Yunsheng didn't know whether to say that she was affectionate or unreasonable. She asked in a low voice, "Jin Yu has reached the age of marriage, but there has been no news about her marriage for a long time, I don't know which son the Queen Mother and His Majesty plan to marry Jin Yu!" Is it really because she is not the king of Su and does not marry? ”
Every woman of the royal family and nobility is born with some kind of mission, and even some are born with everything arranged. As the daughter of Prince Zhe, Jin Yu did not follow Prince Zhe to the fief, but stayed in the palace for many years, which can only be said that Jin Yu was arranged clearly.
Aunt Yu Lan, as an old man in the palace, has served by the Queen Mother's side for many years, and she sees this kind of thing as a perceptive.
Aunt Yulan nodded, leaned into Chu Yunsheng's ear and whispered, "Your Majesty does have this intention, but King Su is unwilling. A few days ago, I heard the Queen Mother say that in a few days, she will randomly point out to Jinyu the son of a famous family. ”
Chu Yunsheng's eyes flickered, and he sighed, "It turns out that the Queen Mother has already had this plan. ”
"But no, the Queen Mother has always disliked Lord Jinyu. The county lord of Jinyu is about to stay as an old girl for the sake of the king, although the county lord is a delicate daughter, no matter how old someone will want it, but the woman's Chunhua is only a few years, how can the queen mother let the county lord Jinyu keep waiting! ”
Aunt Yulan patted Chu Yunsheng's hand, "My good county lord, don't care about my words, the Queen Mother is looking forward to you!" ”
Chu Yunsheng smiled embarrassedly, and under the guidance of Aunt Yulan, she soon met the Queen Mother, who was also her grandmother.
The Queen Mother is more than half a hundred years old, her hair is full of hairpin rings, her face is very well maintained, but there are a few textures at the corners of her eyes that betray her age, and she is wearing a purple floor-length skirt, showing her noble appearance.
Chu Yunsheng saluted according to the palace rules, and then asked, "I heard that my grandmother called Yunsheng to come over." ”
"Grandmother hasn't seen you for a long time, a few days ago I wanted to call you into the palace to talk to my grandmother, but I heard that you went to Qianfu Temple, so I can only give up." Empress Dowager Gu's cloudy eyes looked over and looked at her, "I heard that you came back yesterday, and I originally wanted to call you into the palace, thinking that you were also tired along the way, so I summoned you to the palace early this morning." ”
After speaking, Empress Dowager Gu asked, "Grandmother didn't disturb your rest!" ”
Chu Yunsheng shook his head, "How could it be!" I haven't seen my grandmother for a long time, and Yun Sheng also thought about coming to ask my grandmother for peace today, but I didn't expect my grandmother to send someone to pick up Yun Sheng first. ”
Empress Dowager Gu had a kind smile on her face, "Our grandfather and nephew really have the same heart!" ”
Chu Yunsheng laughed, for some reason, when she heard the word "heart-to-heart", she had a bad feeling in her heart.
This grandmother treats her well on weekdays, but she will not forget that she was also a person who fought her way out of the harem of the first emperor and finally ascended to the phoenix throne and sat on the phoenix throne for more than ten years.
In the past, she might have come to Changle Palace under Cheng Huan's knees. But today, rumors are circulating in the capital and even the palace about her and Qin Qi, summoning her at this time is really just to talk to her?
She doesn't believe it anyway!
Sure enough, the next moment, Empress Dowager Gu was exposed.
"Unconsciously, Yun Sheng has grown into a slim little girl, and she has reached the age of marriage, I don't know which son-in-law you have in mind?" The Queen Mother had a kind smile on her face, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes came out.
